I'm looking for power fine grinds for my salt. Can it do this?

I haven't tried mine with salt but it does do pepper with much more ease than prior auto pepper grinders I have had in the past. I would expect that it would work with salt...I have been meaning to buy a second one for that same purpose.

If you look at my short vidxeo you will see that it does not give a powder fine grind of pepper. Although you can grind salt (ceramikc mechanism) it is a much harder spice than pepperm The grind will be even coarser.

Not that I know of. The salt is in pretty big "chunks," so you do need a grinder of some kind. I take the salt out and put it in my "pretty" grinder. I did see the same salt crystals at Whole Foods in bulk... so that might be an option for you.

Haven't tried it. One side is marked with a P and the other is marked with an S but if it will grind sea salt it should grind pepper

I would think so, though I can't see a definte "YES!". But I have heard of all kinds of spices and herbs and things being grind with this mill...!

Not to worry! It is not a salt "grinder". It is a salt "shaker". It is advised that you use Sea Salt only.

You can adjust the grind. I prefer my salt larger than table salt so it works well for me.

It is sea salt which is a coarse but a wonderful salt for cooking. You could possibly try Morton iodized salt but you would only need a salt shaker not a grinder for that.

Yes. I use similar salts. The gap between the rotating ceramic grinding disc and the non moving circular base is adjustable. Thus, for salt which is not in the form of large crystals, one can reduce the gap, and it would be fine. One thing to note is that the salt being used has to be free-flowing though. So if the Himalayan rock salt is sticky, then it would not enter the grinding section at all. Hope this helps. :)

I've never tried, but you can adjust the grinding mechanism from fine to coarse so I'm guessing you could.

Although I didn't get my Himalayan salt from Amazon, My OXO Good Grips Salt Grinder works well with the Himalayan salt I bought elsewhere. AND, I really love this salt grinder because you have to turn it upside down to grind, and set upright so that the salt bits don't fall onto your cabinet or table surfaces and leave a mess.

Yes you can. I use a Pampered Chef salt and pepper grinder and have no problems at all.

You know, Michael, I don't really know. I use mine for Himalayan pink salt and it's worked perfectly now for a couple of years. I think the mechanism is a kind of plastic rather than metal so it won't corrode. If you're using it for pepper you might want to be sure of a metal grinder for the harder pepper corns. (By the way, I really do like mine a lot!)

No, but my experience was that this grinder doesn't grind consistently anyway and sent it back. To the best of my knowledge there is a hamilton beach grinder that does that.

Hi, Daniel. I'm away from home right now and don't have the salt grinder with me, but it is approximately 4" tall and possibly 2 3/4" wide. It does not take up a lot of space, but because the base is so round, it holds quite a lot of salt. I can say with certainty that it is able to grind the salt very fine. The adjusting mechanism is very easy to use and will produce anything from somewhat coarse to superfine.

Yes, I'm pretty sure you could, if purchase the right grinder adapter made for it. However, keep in mind, this high speed buffer and are intended for buffing purpose only. My recommendation is to buy the right machine that is made for grinding, plus machine is not a heavy duty which made for heavy grinding and you probably will be disappointed if use this machine for others than buffing.

If you want very fine salt, you should probably buy a grinder. The grains aren't huge -- not as large as some Celtic sea salt grains that I've seen -- but the salt definitely does not have the powdery quality of table salt. There is also a bit of moisture in the bag, so the grains occasionally form small clumps. This is my favorite salt, BTW! I don't have plans on using any other salt in the near future!

It does not grind the salt. Several holes in stainless steel top to shake out salt.
